Heretical suggestion: use IE's HTML parser as alternative option
Hi, food for thought: wouldn't it facilitate HTML viewing if IE's parser (if installed) could be selected for displaying HTML mail? Of course this decision should be made by the user and active and external content could be filtered out before passing the code to IE's engine.

If the user can choose - a good idea - why not let the choice of which engine to use completely under the control of him? So one could use IE, Opera or Mozilla (Lynx may not be that good an idea). -- Dierk Haasis The Bat 2.01.26 on Windows XP 5.1 2600Service Pack 1 You can't talk to a man with a shotgun in his hand.

A better solution BY FAR would be to investigate the use of one of the open source HTML engines, like Gecko.
